'Three (3) tenders were received on April 29, 2003 for the constrUction and hydrogeologic
assessment of a new well to replace the existing Dent Well. The tenderers are licensed well
drillers and each was invited to bid on the project. The following table summarizes the tenders.

The work program specified in the Request for Proposal consists of drilling a 200 mm
(8") diameter well to a depth of 49 m on the existing Dent Well site. Also included is a
hydrogeological assessment to determine if the groundwater is under the influence of surface
(GUDI), pumping tests, laboratory analyses, application for Permit to Take Water and the
abandonment of the existing well.

The specified depth of the new well is estimated and the actual depth may differ. The
tendered unit costs of drilling beyond 49 m are S3251m, S200/m and $751m for Hopper,
Davidson and International Water, respectively.
The hydrogeological consultants' approaches to assessing GUm vary somewhat but all
are acceptable practices. Wilson Associates proposes to drill a 50 mm (2") diameter monitDring
well, if granular deposits are encountered in drilling the main well, at an extra cost of$2,OOO.00
+ GST. Lotowater's approach involves a series of tests and analyses on the soil strata, well
casing and water samples to detennine surface water influence. International Water's
hydrogeologists propose to assess surface water influence by monitoring the nearby stream
during pumping tests. Lotowater and International Water's costs for the assessment are included
in the well construction costs.
If the new well is considered GUDI, the MaE will require a Wellhead Protection Study
be completed. The costs of these studies are presented above and are!!Q! included in the Total
Price of well construction. The existing wells in Tiverton are not consideredGUDL
We have worked with the three tenderers on numerous projects and all are well
experienced in this type Dfwork. We would not hesitate to recommend any of them for the
project. Based on their competitive pricing, we recommend the cDnstrUCtion and hydrogeologic
assessment of the new Dent Well be awarded to W. D. Hopper &. Sons Ltd.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
Yours very truly,
